NFL.com mock draft brings Raiders DE Rashan Gary at No.4

We are just three months away from the NFL Draft, but yet, we still don’t have any idea as to where the Raiders may go with the No.4 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. We’ve seen numerous names mocked to Oakland at pick four, but in Bucky Brooks’ latest mock draft, a new name has emerged. Take a look at Brooks’ three picks for the Raiders:

No.4 – DE Rashan Gary, Michigan

No.24 – WR Kelvin Harmon, North Carolina State

No.27 – DT Jeffery Simmons, Mississippi State

The most intriguing selection for the Raiders is Michigan’s defensive lineman Rashan Gary. He is one of the most athletic defensive linemen in the country and should be a top-10 selection.

However, his lack of production in his collegiate career is somewhat concerning. In 34 career games, Gary had just 23 tackles for a loss and 9.5 sacks. According to Pro Football Focus, Gary had only 24 quarterback pressures in 2018:

Selecting Gary at No.4 would be a high-risk, high-reward move by the Raiders. While Gary certainly as upside, there will likely be better players on the board for Oakland when they are on the clock.
